I just finished the book "Breath" by James Nestor. The book was very interesting and talked a lot about some of this but I was wondering if anyone has done any research on the book,I walked away feeling like there was a possibility that a lot of it was bullshit

I read it and am not 100% convinced, although I am a dubious believer in some of the science promoted by Wim.

Nestor lost me when he started into the acidic diet, which has (IIRC) been resoundingly refuted.

google the Buteyko method (which is the subject of much of the book). Not surprisingly, the claims made by its practitioners do not hold up to rigorous testing.

Do you have a source? Buteyko has been studied and shown positive effects [0].
